You can now save up to $300 on the Surface Laptop 2 at the Microsoft Store

As part of a limited-time sale lasting through March 9, Microsoft is discounting different versions of the Surface Laptop 2. Starting configurations of the MacBook competitor are now selling for $900 at the Microsoft Store, and additional versions with expanded storage and processing power can also be found for up to $300 off usual prices.

The most affordable option in the sale covers the base platinum version of the Surface Laptop 2 with the Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, and a 128GB solid-state drive. Usually $1,000, this version is now $900. For more storage space and color, a separate deal also applies to the burgundy, black, and cobalt blue versions. These all come equipped with the same processor and RAM, but a bigger 256GB solid-state drive. That deal brings the price down from $1,300 to $1,000. Both are excellent choices for day-to-day web browsing, multi-tasking, and even light photo editing.

If you’re looking for a Surface Laptop 2 that is a bit more powerful, you’re also in luck. Microsoft’s sale brings the price of the platinum version with the Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and a 512GB solid-state drive down from $2,200 to $1,900. A better choice for video editing or running 3D applications, the deal accounts for a savings of $300.

The new Surface Laptop 2 hasn’t changed much from last year’s model, but it is still an excellent option if you’re looking for a new Windows device. The touchscreen laptop comes equipped with Intel’s eighth-generation U-series processors, which are quad-core and thus pack a bit more performance. Microsoft also promises the device can last you through a day on a single charge with its 14.5 hours of battery life. Although the Surface Laptop 2 doesn’t pack USB C ports or expandable memory like most other laptops, it does comes with Windows Hello face recognition camera on board for more seamless and easy logins to Windows 10.
